Narrative is an Auckland, New Zealand-based software company that builds workflow tools for professional photographers. Its main product, the Narrative app, brings AI-assisted culling and editing to macOS and Windows. It imports thousands of RAW files in seconds, groups similar shots into scenes, flags missed focus and closed eyes, and applies AI Presets before photographers send their selects to Lightroom or Capture One. Narrative handles the repetitive work; the photographer keeps creative control. The company also makes Narrative Publish, a blogging app for photographers.
